"Are you sure we are in the right place?"
*Whuuuaaaaa….whoooooo….whuaaaaoooooo….wuhaaaahhhhoooo….whisssshaaaawhooooo….whuaaahooooo*
"It definitely feels like we are in the right place. Jackets everyone."
"Is this why you said only the School can come?"
"WHAT WAS THAT?"
"I said, 'Is THIS WHY YOU ONLY LET THE SCHOOL COME? Cause we have changing hoodies for all seasons?"
"PARTIALLY."
"Why don't you give everyone a hoodie?"
"They're a lot of work."
"What'd you say?"
"I said, 'THEY ARE A LOT OF....nevermind. This snowstorm isn't helping our chances any. I can see why the Dragons threw the King here. It literally is the edge of nothing.
Maybe we can find him."
"Forget finding him. I can't even see you."
"What do you mean, 'FIND HIM? What did you do?"
"I recreated all the scenes from the book; well…..most of them. We can't interact with the characters, but once this storm clears; you should be able to see the town better."
"Or..."
"What's left of it."
"Don't be so pessimistic. Look, the cloud is clearing."
"I see Tyke. There he runs."
"How do you know it's Tyke?"
"Do you see anyone else out here?"
"I...actually yeah. Yeah I do. I see…."
"STOP RIGHT THERE, TRESSPASSER."
"Is he talking to us?"
*Whoooshh*
"Obviously not. He walked right through us."
"Guys, I told you. This is a rendering of what life used to be like...…to the best of my knowledge."
"There goes Tyke into the Inn. But isn't he supposed to be accompanying the King, not looking for a place to stay?"
" 'Please, Sir. Just one room. I'll pay anything.'"
"'Sorry, but even if you could; I could not give.'"
"'It's for the King.'"
" 'Shhhh. Keep your voice down. The Dragons have us all on strict rules never to let him back. He was pronounced dead by PlantLily. If they catch word of his life, they'll….."
" 'Please. Help me, help you. Since when did we let Pets have the final say?"
"There you are. Freeze."
"...Go through the backdoor, quick. It's not much, but I have a small shack for you, you can stay in. Here's the keys. I'll hold off the others."
"Thanks. I will never forget this."
"Wait a second. I know this Inn. This is....this is the Inn that Ruby and I stayed at when we went around gifting baskets of food to people."
"Darius, shh. We want to see where he goes next."
*Knock, Knock, Knock*
"King, you in there? I got us a room but we need to go now while the coast is clear.
…..Please don't cry. You'll see them again soon. I promise."
"It's just…..I trusted them."
"I know. We all did, but please; can you walk and cry?
"He's...….he's.....he's over there."
"You know what? Keep crying. Crying is a good thing.
Yeah. Very good."
"Stop right there."
"So good in fact that during times like this."
"ATTACK!!!!"
*Spissshaaaaaaaasshhhh*
It can make you cry in a river."
"They're getting away."
"King, keep crying; and I'll start paddling."
"Where? How?"
"Come on Kids, let's follow."
"Why aren't the others able to hop on the river?"
"Yeah. Why is it turning to ice whenever they try to step on it?"
"It's not their river. The King only cried one boat; not a bridge."
"I didn't even know that was a real thing."
"Well kid, it is; and we're on it. You're going to experience a lot of weird anomalies. Spirits were high and anything could be believed. It just had to be imagined first.
Everyone, say goodbye to the IceCastle."
"But what about the…"
*BOOM*
"Aaaaaaaaghhh."
"Hang on, King."
*Shing…..shing*
"SNOWMAN!!!!!!!!"
